The KF-PRO-005 in action

A compact, single-tray scanner that turns five glass slides into shareable whole-slide images in minutes — see the full loading-to-viewing workflow.

Where it fits best

Built for fast, decentralised pathology

The KF-PRO-005 is purpose-built for settings that need quick answers from a small number of slides — without the cost or footprint of a high-throughput system.

From glass to consult

A frozen-section workflow in four steps

Speed matters most when a surgical team is waiting. The KF-PRO-005 keeps the path from slide to remote sign-off as short as possible.

Connected care

Seamless integration with KF-TPP

The KF-PRO-005 works hand-in-hand with KF-TPP, KFBIO’s tele-pathology platform. For intraoperative frozen sections, a patent-protected workflow sends the scan directly to the reviewing pathologist without waiting for the slide to be uploaded and archived — keeping remote frozen-section diagnosis within 30 minutes.

Slides
General The tissue/smear must be mounted with a coverslip, glass or tape.
Standard 1-inch x 3-inch (2.54 cm x 7.62 cm) slides. Compatiable with ISO 8037/1.

Thickness 0.9 mm ~ 1.1 mm, excluding coverslip
Special Requirement The coverslip and attached label must remain fully within the microscope slide perimeter, secured with complete adhesive contact. All surfaces shall lie flat without edge separation. The slide exterior must maintain dryness with no fluid leakage from the specimen zone.
Maximum Tissue/Smear Thickness Optimized for tissue thickness of 3-5 μm (including mounting media)
Coverslips Accepted The coverslip/label assembly (0.17 mm nominal thickness, standard borosilicate glass or cellulose tri-acetate film) must maintain full edge registration with the microscope slide substrate through continuous adhesive bonding. All interfacial surfaces shall exhibit co-planar adhesion integrity with zero delamination, while the external slide surfaces remain contamination-free from residual fluids or specimen migration.
Label Area (W x L) 25 mm x 25 mm
Label Special Requirement Adhesive labels must maintain non-protrusive margins within slide boundaries and demonstrate full-surface lamination to the coverslip interface plane (upper slide surface). Prohibited from substrate attachment on the specimen observation surface (lower slide plane), all labeling components shall exhibit edge-to-edge planar adhesion without delamination defects.
Barcodes Supported 1D and 2D Barcode, QRCode, DataMatrix Code

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about deploying the KF-PRO-005 in a small lab or intraoperative setting.

It uses a single tray that holds up to five slides. Slides can be replaced between runs, making it well suited to on-demand and intraoperative scanning where only a few slides are needed at a time.
Yes. A standard slide is scanned in roughly 15 seconds at 20× (about 25 seconds at 40×), so a frozen section can be digitised and shared for remote review almost as soon as it reaches the scanner.
It supports slides up to 104 × 76 mm and a scanning region up to 100 × 50 mm — large enough for oversized frozen-section and mega slides that smaller-format scanners cannot handle.
The KF-PRO-005 is bright-field by default and is fluorescence-ready: it can be upgraded on the existing instrument to add multi-channel fluorescence scanning when your lab needs it.
Scans are saved as KFBIO’s native .KFB as well as open .SVS, DICOM (.DCM) and .TIFF, so your slides integrate with third-party viewers, PACS/LIS systems and AI analysis tools.
Whole-slide images can be opened in the browser-based KFBIO cloud viewer and shared by link, letting a remote pathologist review the case at full diagnostic resolution from any location.
At 470 × 510 × 570 mm it is the most compact scanner in the KF-PRO series and fits on a standard laboratory bench. It runs on 100–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
